. . . Duck Tape Wreath . . .

• • • I have seen several people on Pinterest correcting my spelling of "Duck" Tape.  I know it's spelled DUCT but I used Duck Brand and they spell it "Duck Tape" for their decorative line of tapes.  I really do know how to spell, I promise.  • • •

 I love all the fun new duck tapes that are available in the stores.  You may remember I made a unique paper holder out of a box and zebra duck tape and it was a fun project.  I figured why not use duck tape to make a wreath?
• • • • • • • • Duck Tape Wreath
I purchased a foam wreath form, fun duck tape and felt pieces to make my rosettes.  It was as easy as cutting strips of duck tape and wrapping the wreath form with them and then cutting out three sizes of felt circles and using floral pins to stick them in to the duck taped wreath.
 • Gather your supplies
• Cut strips of tape long enough to wrap one time around your wreath form.  
• Just start wrapping and smoothing the tape around the foam form
• Continue wrapping the tape around the form until completely covered 
 • Trace three different size circles on the felt of your choice.
• Cut them out and layer them
• Attach the felt rosettes with floral pins
 • After finishing my wreath I decided it needed a little more so I cut pieces of tulle ribbon in short strips
• Wrap the tulle ribbon around a floral pin 
• Insert the "puffs" of tulle into the wreath a
• Spread out the tulle and trim it so it just adds a little "fluff"
